Teams are encouraged to seek guidance and assistance from organizers, volunteers, sponsors, and others during the event.
All project development must take place exclusively during the hackathon.
Teams may base their work on an idea they conceived prior to the event.
Teams collaborating on a shared idea are permitted, with their work being evaluated based on the innovation and execution quality of their hack. (It’s challenging nowadays to create something entirely original, and teams might not always realize an idea has been previously implemented.)
